"There were a lot of things I did to escalate that whole thing with Shawn Michaels and Vince McMahon."

He continued: "I wouldn't change anything I did in terms of my own conduct but I regret all of it.

"I wish I had never left the WWE but I've moved on. I went back and shook Shawn's hand and it was good for everyone to bury the hatchet."

During the Survivor Series pay-per-view at the Molson Center in Montreal on November 9, Hart was put into his own signature Sharpshooter by Michaels and - under orders from McMahon - referee Earl Hebner called the bell for Michaels, despite Hart not submitting.

Hart had signed a contract to move to the competing WCW brand and had reportedly agreed for his match to end in a disqualification, allowing him to keep the belt against his long-standing rival in his home country, before forfeiting it to McMahon the following day.
